Everyone knows Gil, a talented wide receiver for the ASU Redbirds and one of those popular guys on campus. But they don't know the real Gil: Smart. Geeky. Virgin. Gil has 12 days until Christmas. And his birthday. 12 days to lose his virginity. 12 dates to figure out his type. And one grumpy roommate reluctantly assisting him.

Enchantments run deep on the magical Isle of Cadence: gossip is carried by the wind, plaid shawls can be as strong as armour and the smallest cut of a knife can instil fathomless fear. The capricious spirits that live there find mirth in the lives of the humans who call the land home, but that mischief turns to malevolence as girls begin to go missing. Adaira, heiress of the East, knows the spirits only answer to a bard’s music, enticing them to return the missing girls. But there’s only one bard capable of drawing the spirits forth by song: her childhood enemy, Jack Tamerlaine.
